MegaChurches Close their doors for Christmas

Just got an email from a friend and went online to check it out...Willow Creek and many WCA churches are going to be closed on Christmas. To allow people more time with family. Why not spend time as a family at church? Yes, more people show up on Christmas Eve, but hey why not do family friendly services and have the church family come together to celebrate the birth of the Christ child together through Word and song. You can't tell me that the family taking 90 minutes (including some driving time) to go to church on Christmas morning will cause the demise of the family.

I think this really speaks to the fact that faith is shallowing in America. We have been reduced to bumper sticker doctrine and are part of a largly biblically illiterate society. Won't this be fun to jump into the fray? Peace.
